006all of us and those sacrifices and we kept telling you it's going to pay off we're going to see the results and we really appreciate you as an Administration team of trusting us and hanging in there and getting through all of that and doing the unbelievable things of our 74-page mitigation plan to keep us in school and listening to those weekly updates as we change those and going through that so we can focus on what's most important and that's educating our kids and so we really appreciate those sacrifices to our students especially our middle school so shout out to you guys for all the extra time on IXL and using a great program that has helped Force you ahead and make you academic Scholars if you are today so great job for all of you
